Notably, the results showed that college students scored an average of (22.48 ± 5.40) for well-being. Moreover, the research correlation results indicated a strong positive relationship between social support and well-being (r = 0.732, p < 0.01), as well as between basic psychological needs and well-being (r = 0.748, p < 0.01). Furthermore, the path coefficients for social support and basic psychological needs concerning well-being were statistically significant (p < 0.05), with values of β = 0.413 and β = 0.444. In conclusion, this study has identified significant well-being predictors among Shandong University students in China.","PeriodicalId":487205,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":"25 20","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140429989","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Applying a case study approach, this study presents empirical evidence from semi-structured interviews with managers having considerable experience in internationalization processes in four organizations in Uzbekistan. The study focuses on processes of organizational communication, leadership, and culture, particularly in organizations aiming to internationalize their operations. The findings offer practical suggestions for organizations considering internationalization as a business strategy. To achieve optimal performance in internationalization, organizations must establish an effective communication environment and understand the importance of leadership styles and the cultural facets of the organization. Furthermore, to enhance their internationalization process, organizations in developing economies, such as Uzbekistan, could utilize the techniques employed by international companies as a platform for training.","PeriodicalId":487205,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":"43 3","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-02-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140440160","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The fast growth of the technological world has resulted in a greater requirement for theory and practice to successfully utilize the collaborative online arenas. However, there has been widespread sexual exploitation perpetrated by sophisticated organized criminal syndicates, a profitable sex business, and sexting due to frequent interaction with these online arenas. The word “sexting” is used to refer to the practice of receiving and transmitting sexually explicit images through various virtual communications, particularly in most internet environments. Although sexting is not limited to teenagers, their involvement and the impact on their lives have prompted significant concern among parents, schools, and the media. As a result, this article will examine the tiny but growing area of qualitative research on sexting to determine sexting’s impact on people’s well-being. Building on this, the primary goal of this report was to broaden the understanding of why a person engages in sexting by analyzing the theorized behavioral and cognitive mechanisms depicted by social learning theory and social opportunity structure devised to expand this existing, one-dimensional theoretical framework. The results of this study show that many individuals in online communities see sexting as “fun” and “amusing.” Besides, for adolescents unwilling to engage in actual sexual escapades, sexting may play an integral role in the sexual exploration period. Negative consequences for one’s well-being, such as reputational harm, are also addressed. Furthermore, according to the findings, scholars must continue to employ innovative, interactive techniques with the young generation to investigate the impacts of this sophisticated communication type.","PeriodicalId":487205,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":"395 2","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2024-01-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"140482832","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

The rural digitalization phenomenon has repercussions on various sociological aspects of human beings, including the patterns of interaction, the intricacies of interpersonal relationships, individual attitudes and actions, and the comprehension of individual identities. This phenomenon is also observed in the digital village of Kendalbulur. In support of good governance, the village government has developed an application for managing social, economic, and governmental affairs. Throughout the digitalization process, the community has experienced a transformation in the patterns of interaction between residents and the village government, shifting from physical co-presence to virtual space. The alteration in the relationship between residents and the village government is a noteworthy subject to scrutinize since it is not an easy task to alter the mindset of rural communities, in particular for those who were born during the baby boom era, given that the consequence is that all residents must become proficient in using information technology. It applied a qualitative descriptive research design combined with the Rapid Rural Appraisal (RRA) methodology. The principle of purposive sampling determined the selection of the research subject. The data analysis was conducted based on the Miles and Huberman framework. The Village Head (Kades), as the representation of village government officials, still prioritizes direct communication with their people. In addition to the utilization of digital technology, such as the Simpeldesa application, direct communication in this context involves practices such as deliberations (musyawarah) and communal cooperation (gotong royong), either with the villagers themselves or their representatives, such as the heads of neighborhood associations (ketua RT or RW).","PeriodicalId":487205,"journal":{"name":"European Journal of Humanities and Social Sciences","volume":"1 1","pages":"0"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2023-10-31","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"135977899","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
